Has anyone seen Slackware packages for beta2 yet? All I see on KDE's site is Suse.

Re: Slackware package!?!

I hadn't seen one, however I'm using Slackware and have been compiling KDE from source sine beta 1 was out. So far Slackware is doing really great at the compilation.
I would suggest that you compile for yourself though. The first packed Slackware from beta 1 didn't have authentication configured in so sending email was impossible. I am currently, kind of sorta on Slackware 10.1 just to let you know, and the compile works great with that too.

If you act now, I'll even throw in a set of table knives. That's right. Call now :PReply to this

Re: how about..

I would say it was stable since beta 1. But as it stands now, and for me, the speed of it is my important reason for having it. It is stable, but what one would concider stable, another might not.
What circumstance are you referring to?

well, i read about compiling errors (see above) of kicker, but i mean for example, if apps like konqueror, kicker, kdesktop or kontact are running fine or crashing very much ?

Re: Re: Re: how about..

Those types are issues are really dependent upon your cvs updates. For example, my updating ways caused me to miss the issue with the kicker, simply because I was waiting for a compile before getting the cvs update that contained that problem.
But I think for the most part most of the scary issues are resolved. So giving the beta a shot at this point would be worth it.

gridspacing

anyone else problems with this one? i use 32x32 icons on my desktop, and if i use "align to grid" the space between the icons is too wide.
yes, i use kdeglobals -> DektopGridSpacing=x,y (62,0 in my case) but it seems this one doesnt get honored anymore? it used to work fine in 3.3.x and even in beta1.
maybe this has been renamed now, but i have no clue where to look at.

also, if i like to view my devices in konqueror - i get a popup "devices - unknown protocol". this one might be related to my distribution (gentoo here), but maybe someone else is experiencing this?

How do you like Plasma 5? The best KDE Desktop ever. Definitely a nice improvement. Not decided yet. Haven't tried it yet. I do not like some of the changes. KDE is taking the wrong way. I am still sticking with KDE 3.5. I have no opinion, but wanted to vote anyway.
